AMC Ta4alc3 Maxene Powder, Purity : ≥98 wt%

Listing ID #5611942

Ta4AlC3 is a member of vdW MAX layered material system. Similar to graphite and MoS2, the MAX phases are layered and have the general formula: Mn+1AXn, (MAX) where n = 1 to 3, M is an early transition metal, A is a non-metal element and X is either carbon and/or nitrogen. In this particular case, M=Ta, A=Al, and X=C with n=3.

World’s first electronic and optical grade commercial layered MAXene phase Ta4AlC3 materials: Ta4AlC3 MAX phase has been synthesized at our facilities using large reactor chemical vapor deposition to yield World’s highest purity (99.999% or higher guaranteed) and layered MAX phases.

The MAX phases are electrically and thermally conductive due to their metallic-like nature of bonding. They are excellent for research quality materials as 2D metals, battery applications, supermetallicity, thermal physics, or as precursors for MXene production.

Ta4AlC3 product consists of microsized layered crystals that measure from 1 micron to 100 microns in size.

Each order contains 2000 mg of high purity and layered Ta4AlC3 MAXenes sealed under inert Ar gas.

The product has been perfected in the last years to reach guaranteed 4:1:3 Ta:Al:C ratios and exhibit extraordinary environmental stability. Each crystallite can be exfoliated either using conventional tape exfoliation or alternatively liquid phase exfoliation technique.
